Stefan Lehner Eliminated in 9th Place ($26,400)
With the unofficial final table set thanks to the elimination of Jeffrey Trudeau, there was some confusion on the other table as they had started the hand at the same time. Stefan Lehner, Isaac Haxton and Josh Arieh all inquired whether or not they would split the pay jump.
Once that was confirmed not to be the case, Lehner called all-in from the big blind following a pot-sized open raise by Haxton.
Stefan Lehner: 8?7?6?3?
Isaac Haxton: A?K?J?8?
"Oh wow, you have an eight also. Just keep it high, Maria," Arieh told the dealer as he was sweating the WSOP Paradise Parlay for the official eight-handed final table.
The board ran out A?K?Q?9?Q? and Arieh as well as Haxton locked up the $25,000 bonus, while Lehner was eliminated in 9th place for $26,400.
There is now a short break ahead of the start of the official final table.
